FYI & FWIW,

It's easy to get a RangeFromPoint but to get the RECT or POINTAPI for a
range is far less straightforward.

I've had a look at Chip Pearson's FormPositioning demo. No luck there.
His code is struggling when he must determine the range's rectangle.
It comes close, but is not exact (look closely and it's off by a few
pixels) and it doesnt take much to throw his code offtrack by inches.
Use outlines...,Use zoom...Use a 120 DPI monitor setting.. oops again.

He's adjusting left and top for commandbars caption heights etc, but
missed the trick!

I've googled but couldn't find how it should be done.
So I tried .. and tried.. and found the EXACT way to do it.

Basically it's very simple.
the cell's LEFT converted to pixels.
PLUS
application.screenpixelsX(0).. to give you the starting PT.X of the
'clientrect'

et voila!

I wrapped it in a sub rather then a function to be compatible with api
syntax (plus for the purists.. it's slightly faster).

Nice one KeepITcool. One of those Eureka moments no doubt :-)

That's the first time I've seen anyone use the PointsToScreenPixelsX/Y
methods for anything useful.

You might be interested in the following post which describes a different
way of achieving the same result.

http://groups.google.com.au/group/mi...8664c24e1751e/

In my (perhaps biased) humble opinion, I think it's slightly better because
the algorithm you've shown fails when the sheet's zoom setting is < 100%. It
also fails with regards to split windows. Both algorithms fail with regards
frozen panes. :-(

Please don't get me wrong KeepITcool, I'm not trying to rain on your
parade. I think your contributions to this forum are some of the very best
and it's great to gain insight from people such as yourself who are so able
and willing to think for themselves.

Repair for the zoom..

Set wnd = rng.Parent.Parent.Windows(1)

wnd.PointsToScreenPixelsX(0)
RC.Bottom = PTtoPX(.Top + .Height, 1) * wnd.Zoom / 100 +
wnd.PointsToScreenPixelsY(0)
End With
End Sub

I'll figure out the Split stuff later :)

Hi Sir this is Gio from Philippines...... it's my first time here in
this site... i am wondering how can i solve this problem in excel and please
help me.. I used excel 2000 in creating an inventory program in the hospital.
I used this excel inventorry program in our suppply room, i used one
worksheet per item. and i have almost 300 items in the supply room or almost
300 worksheets. I saved it as a template for all i know it is safer to save
it as template rather than saving it as ordinary excel files. The program was
working well, but not when i started linking(hyperlink) it from a certain
file that i always used. Then i have save it several times as a template but
i notice that the program malfuncitons, it doesnt compute the formulas i
created and some formulas are gone. Why is this happening. when i add some
items in the inventory it wouldnt add to the current balance, why is this
happening? Will you please help me, you wer the only people who can only
help me with this kind of problem......please....

Giovanny,

please start your own thread instead of replying to
the first message that pops up and asking something that's
totally offtopic.

Hi Vic:

I remember that post ... it was a few years ago IIRC. I thought it was
pretty ingenious then (and still do).

Nice to see you're still lurking here!

Update.. i'm getting there... :)

i have a PaneWalker... that walks the cursor around the
pixelperfect rectangles of the panes. (frozen & unfrozen,
multiple monitors..)

now fiddling with an alternative for ActivePane.Index
... need to get the pane.index if the activecell
is in a frozen "title pane"..

...THEN..
i hope that the Range & CellWalker follow logically from
what I've got sofar..

...pfff... it's like doing a bloody crypto!
